    I disagree; this war was started when the CIA overthrew a democratically elected government under Ike.

    The CCP and Iran are very close. I don't think the CCP is worried about Iran getting nukes

    The guy who said this and was completely wrong?
    "I do not believe US JASSM missiles are significantly, if at all, more capable than their British/French Storm Shadow/SCALP counterparts. Russian AD has dominated the SS/SCALP missiles from the time of their introduction in Ukraine."

    Russian AD is getting dominated in Ukraine by 30 year old US Tech.

    You would be wrong. If China wanted Iran to have nukes, they would. They do not. And they would not allow NK to give nukes to Iran.

    There is a precedent for the POTUS not telling the opposing party ahead of a major, surprise military operation.

    Won't argue with you on that.

    Sadly a month ago it was looking like regime change could soon come to Iran. Greg Copley said some of the clerics were leaving Iran and it looked like Khamenei might go live in Russia. What Israel and the US have done has unified Iranians against us, strengthened the clerics and possibly increased the odds of Iran getting (more?) nukes.

    I never said China wanted Iran to have nukes. Actions by ZIstael and the ZUS have increased the odds that another country sells Iran nukes imo.

    Yeah, you can always believe the Russians. They will be in Kyiv any day now to liberate it from the Jewish Nazis.

    To be fair though, one could pretty accurately assert that Donald Trump's religion is also lying. You do see the paradox in supporting Trump, then criticizing, well ....... anyone .... for lying, don't you?

    Why here's the 2nd-highest member of the Trump Administration literally explaining that it is perfectly OK for him to tell lies.

    Sen. Vance said. "If I have to create stories so that the American media actually pays attention to the suffering of the American people, then that's what I'm going to do."

    We can debate which instances Trump lied vs. he did not lie. I denounce every instance where Trump actually lied. I also denounce all instances where Biden lied, Harris lied, Vance lied, the MSM lied etc. All lying and deception is wrong, including using AI and presenting it as your own work and words.
